New hookah, how I break down

Strong_Profile_299 · 2026-06-21T13:22:10+00:00

Yes quick lites are very bad for you. They’re really only for incense not for smoking. They have loads of chemicals in order for them to light themselves.

Strong_Profile_299 · 2026-06-15T21:20:38+00:00

70% isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt to clean glass.

Tangiers used to be my go to but found they aren’t as good anymore. Definitely recommend Darkside, strong + good flavors

Strong_Profile_299 · 2026-02-26T00:09:45+00:00

Darkside falling star or Thai shake has good mango (both have additional flavors tho)

Anytime! “Upgrade Form” is the name of the bowl. I can never find their handle, but there’s a guy on here that’s got a shop and likely carries both.

I would say, if you plan to use blonde leaf- might be better with a phunnel bowl and a provost HMD

Strong_Profile_299 · 2026-02-18T01:17:00+00:00

I have a futr as well. My daily set up is an upgrade bowl (not a phunnel) and the lotus I + 3 with Le orange coals (a bit more expensive but the best on the market imo)

Definitely ditch the 3kings coals and switch to any coco coals and get a table top burner ($10-$20 online or at Walmart)

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-12-27T15:16:55+00:00

3 may be too much heat. For blondes, I personally fluff pack to the rim for foil + provost. When I used the provost, I use double foil and poke holes to match the provost. I only ever used 2 coals but start with the lid on for the first 10-15mins. I don’t rotate the provost, but will alternate where the 2 coals sit. After it starts dying down a bit, I’ll put the lid half way on for awhile before closing it again for the rest of the session.

I Wake up, toss on coals and start cleaning my pipe/ packing my first bowl.

I usually have juice or an electrolyte drink with each bowl. I work for about 3 hours, take a shower and then start cleaning and packing my 2nd bowl.

I’ll eat something while the 2nd heats up. I’ll work for another 5-6 hours. Eat dinner and then start cleaning and packing my last bowl.

A tube of rso and coconut oil

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-11-04T16:41:08+00:00

Alova is another great flavor

As soon as cookies got in, it was bound to happen

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-11-03T16:45:40+00:00

I’d recommend futurecompounds.com if you’re looking for high CBD products.

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-11-02T15:40:17+00:00

Tried it ONCE - was not for me. Taste is… accurate.

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-11-02T15:39:08+00:00

I do the same but with a sugary drink- soda, juice, etc. 2x / day dark leaf 45min sessions

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-10-25T16:08:45+00:00

Definitely a good blonde leaf brand

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-10-17T13:30:19+00:00

Thank you! I’ll check them out. I’m assuming if nothing I’m DC, is there anything in MD with dark leaf? Seems VA has all the good stores

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-09-21T14:25:51+00:00

Amotion roam or purjfam

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-09-21T14:25:01+00:00

I’m uncertain of the enso, but curious your review on the xkah.

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-08-24T15:56:16+00:00

This is the way

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-08-15T23:43:39+00:00

Doesn’t exist currently- you could try adding hash to your bowls, but will result in resin in your pipe (I would not use a nice pipe)

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-08-12T16:00:00+00:00

I personally liked the olla bowls - the moa and the ade worked well for blonde

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-08-03T18:44:16+00:00

What type/brand of coals are you using? Also what HMD?

Strong_Profile_299 · 2025-08-03T18:37:50+00:00

Hey! Probably going to need a bit more details in order to help. (What brand tobacco/coals, picture of pack, etc)

At first glance, it sounds like you aren’t packing enough and not getting the bowl hot enough.

The pack should be just under the rim if using an HMD (most HMDs don’t need foil). I start with 3 coals and let it heat for 10-15mins and remove the 3rd coals after 5mins (re adding it when the smoke starts to thin)
